It was one of the few times the cruelty of the game had been too much, even for the free citizens.[1]

Hoon was a crawler in a previous Valtay-produced season of Dungeon Crawler World.

Description

Over the course of his crawl, Hoon secured a mech and completed eleven floors. When he reached the elevator descending to the Twelfth Floor, he found it guarded by his five children ("even the yearling"). Hoon chose to eat his own gun rather than kill his children.[2]

Aftermath

Viewers across the galaxy were so upset by Hoon's situation that the Syndicate Council subcommittee overseeing the crawl instituted a new rule: Collected children and pregnant women cannot be "reconstituted" in the game, and all loved ones should only be used "sparingly."[2][3]
